The Ceylon Computer Science Institute (C2SI) conducts research in various domains, including security, artificial intelligence, mobile applications, cloud computing, and software tools. Our research aims to create computing solutions by identifying low-cost methodologies and strategies that promote sustainability. Currently, C2SI is at a pivotal stage in its evolution, having secured high donor confidence, as evidenced by multiple foreign-funded projects. The institute focuses on developing sustainable computing solutions that leverage low-cost computing and communication technologies, particularly for developing and emerging regions worldwide. We have developed several affordable and sustainable ICT solutions, with a special focus on the needs of the developing world. These solutions are briefly described in the projects section.
An open-source storage platform that implements storage on a single distributed computer cluster and provides a 3-in-1 interface for object-, block- and file-level storage.
CircuitVerse is an easy to use digital logic circuit simulator which aims at providing a platform to create, share and learn digital circuits. It can run on almost any device without the need for installing any software. The platform has been designed for use by students, professionals and hobbyists alike. The vision is to develop a community around the platform that will aid students to self-learn digital logic design. The platform is currently used by several universities worldwide. Apart from the simulator, users can create, learn, collaborate and share their work. Teachers can create groups and host assignments on the platform. The platform’s impact has been more evident than ever in the Covid 19 pandemic as CircuitVerse enabled schools and colleges to move their courses online.
Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) serves as the vendor-neutral home for many of the fastest-growing open source projects, including Kubernetes, Prometheus, and Envoy.
CRIU (stands for Checkpoint/Restore In Userspace), is a Linux software. It can freeze a running container (or an individual application) and checkpoint its state to disk. The data saved can be used to restore the application and run it exactly as it was during the time of the freeze. Using this functionality, application or container live migration, snapshots, remote debugging, and many other things are now possible.
CRIU is packaged for all leading Linux distributions and it is integrated wit lots of popular projects such as Docker, Podman, LXC/LXD, OpenVZ, runc, open-mpi and others
The Debian Project is an association of Free Software developers who
volunteer their time and effort in order to produce and maintain a completely free
operating system Debian. Since its launch, the Debian project has grown to comprise more than 1,000 members with official developer status, alongside many more volunteers and contributors. Today, Debian encompasses over 50,000 packages of free, open source applications and documentation.
Drupal is a powerful Content Management System (CMS) and framework built on PHP, used globally by governments, universities, and businesses to build complex websites and applications, offering unmatched flexibility, security, and scalability through its modular architecture (modules and themes) and community-driven development.
The Eclipse Foundation provides our global community of individuals & organizations with a mature, scalable, and business-friendly environment for OSS collaboration and innovation.
FOSSASIA is an organization developing Open Source software applications and Open Hardware together with a global community from its base in Asia. It is our goal to provide access to open technologies, science applications and knowledge that improve people's lives. We want to enable people to adapt and change technology according to their own ideas and needs and validate science and knowledge through an Open Access approach. FOSSASIA was established 2009 by Hong Phuc Dang and Mario Behling. We organize and participate in conferences, meetups and code camps. The annual FOSSASIA Summit is one of the top tech events in Asia. Other summits take place in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and India. FOSSASIA also runs a number of coding programs such as Codeheat. Please join us and start contributing to our projects, participate as a coder, designer, hardware developer or event organizer.
The FOSSi (Free and Open Source Silicon) Foundation is a not-for-profit organization with the support the growing community of open source silicon hardware. We do this with a variety of activities and through Google Summer of Code we bring together enthusiastic mentees and outstanding projects. Under our umbrella are open source silicon hardware projects, operating systems and compilers for such projects, tools for electronic design automation and the related ecosystem.
